If those answers do not fully address your question, please ask a new question. If your MBR were erased, GRUB would not run at all. What is happening here is that the MBR code is running, and has been told to look on the partition with the UUID of 58abf29c... for the configuration menu. Most likely, this was the partition you erased, so it doesn't exist anymore. The easiest way to fix it would be to download the grub boot repair CD, which will probably fix it automatically. –Marty Fried May 29 '12 at 16:22 A complete answer is here askubuntu.com/questions/125428/… –Bryce Nov 11

I have Windows 7 installed, and I followed this guide to dual boot. After installation, I see the GRUB rescue screen, telling me there is no such device (followed by a rather long set of letters an numbers). I am unable to boot into either Windows or Ubuntu. Last time I had this error, I just ran boot repair and it fixed it, but this time, even that won't work. (To install boot http://askubuntu.com/questions/449354/14-04-grub-rescue-no-such-device repair, I had to change the repository distribution to 'saucy', otherwise it doesn't find the package.) I tried boot repair twice: 1: http://paste.ubuntu.com/7229503/ 2: http://paste.ubuntu.com/7271773/ To at least save Windows, what are my options?

Can I somehow just uninstall GRUB and revert to using a single OS? –Luka Kotar Apr 18 '14 at 1:53 I will try this solution to get Windows back up and running. One question before I do that: should I remove the Linux partitions? (EXT5 and Linux Swap) I'm just asking to be safe. –Luka Kotar Apr 18 '14 at 2:03 Before you change the ext4 and swap partitions, it would be a good idea to look at how to uninstall Grub and revert to using a single OS from the Ubuntu point of view: How to remo
